Machu Picchu Peruvian Restaurant

Friendly service, at times a bit of a communication problem since I only speak 3 words of Spanish and our waitress not much English. But since the menu has both languages, we were able to come ot an agreement. For starters you get some white bread and some sort of green sauce to dip it in. Love that green sauce whatever it may be. The portion sare quite large and most dishes are starch heavy. Potatoes & Rice, or pasta & potato and so on. While there are no Guinea Pigs on this menu (thank goodness), you can find things such as beef heart or octopus and mussels.I had #37 I believe it's called Camarones Ajilos, but don't quote me on that. It came with Shrimp in a delicate sauce, fries, white rice and a little salad all on one plate. All of it delicious. I was there with part of my dining group of course and while everyone ordered a different dish, I heard no complaints at all.

If you like to try different cultures food and MP to your list. Very cute, casual space. Don't let the strip mall location stop you. They have a large menu with something for everyone. This was definitely a situation that every dish that came out I kept thinking Oh I want that one! Especially some of the fried rice dishes as they were huge portions. I did totally enjoy mine though! Picante De Mariscos-Shrimp, octopus, squid, mussels, cooked with Peruvian spices. Served with a side of rice. Delicious!I'd love to try some of the ceviche's next visit.

I missed taking pictures my first time, but take heart, I'm coming back! My husband and I ended up here because we were on the hunt for Arroz Chaufa. We struck GOLD!! it was all the things! Delicious, huge portion, and affordable. My daughter and I split a rotisserie chicken meal with a side of fries and salad. We both loved the chicken. My kiddo is not a baked chicken fan, but she devoured this! Perfect for a substitute kids meal, especially because I didn't see a specific kids meal and the cuisine is new to us. The salad was simple and tasted wonderful. It's a simple like juice squeeze dressing, so if that's not your thing, I'd go a different direction. The dining atmosphere is relaxed, clean, comfortable. The decor is unique and authentic. I'm excited to return.

Choros Ala Chalaca (Mussels),Picante Marisco (Seafood in Peruvian sauce ) not spicy unless requested, Chicha Morada Drink ( very nice hint of cloves)

The food was good. The lomo saltado was flavorful, but the meat was a bit tough for a good saltado The yucca fries we good, would have appreciated some sea salt on them! The restaurant was clean, welcoming, and had relaxed vibe. Service was great and timely!

Outstanding lomo saltado. Perfect balance of flavor and spice. The fried plaintains with the green sause is so nice. Great poertions. Worth every cent. I highly recommend this restaurant. Great service, friendly staff. A memerable experience you shouldn't miss. Wow!

Love love love love love the seafood rice! Not only it is delicious and definitely full of seafood their portion size is A LOTThere's 2 of us and we share the seafood rice, we get a whole meal to eat there and another meal to bring home, it's a hugeeeee portion Staffs are friendly and when you seat down they bring you this bread with green sauce They also have other Peruvian food that I have yet to try, I've tried their (clay oven?) fried chicken which was also good but seafood trumps fried chicken for me

Doing errands in this side of town, famished... His Goatness spotted the place, and it was on! First: open during the "foodless hour" -- the time many restaurants close between lunch and dinner. Man, I love finding places that are!Ambience: simple strip mall joint, a bit aged, but with a cool wall mural containing a brief history of Machu Picchu, which is neat.Service: pleasant, efficient, bilingual in English and Spanish. Water arrived with a fresh lime wedge, which was a nice touch. No chips -- bread and an herbal aioli served instead. Food: the chicken stew looked very simple, but it was packed with flavor. His Goatness's fried beef and French fries was pretty good, although the beans were a bit bland. Everything struck me as simple home cooking, nothing fancy, but filling and hearty. Will have to try the ceviche next time!Price: reasonable. I recommend, if you're hungry!

We had the potato thing sorry I don't remember the name but it's very light mashed potatoes filled with meat, hard boiled egg and an olive . My husband loves it, l like it but it's way to big to eat much of if you want to have your dinner . Last time we were here they were out of chicken . The place is full of families on the weekends and I know what they know the Peruvian chicken is amazing so either go early or not on a Sunday because you must order the chicken . The chicken comes with 2 sides and it seems potatoes come from Peru originally so it's a standard side dish . Try them they are super crispy on the outside and baked potato soft on the inside . So we ordered the chicken and the vegetable fried rice . We like to eat family style so we share whatever we order I think this might be a good idea for most people since the fried rice is a meal ... for a giant . Long ago sorry I don't know my history Chinese people immigrated to Peru in large numbers so the food reflects that influence and is delicious. The service is fast ( as fast as cooking fresh food can be ) and pleasant. We didn't understand a word each of us said but smiles and nods got the order perfect . Very nice lady out front . It's clean and nicely decorated and on a Tuesday early evening it's was quiet . However on a Sunday around one it's family time . Personally I like the sounds of families gathered at a table or a few tables . It wasn't loud by any means just background chatter but it was busy . This is NOT Mexican food or Spanish food or Cuban food it's completely different . You can take your non foody friend who prefers chicken nuggets and they will enjoy it .

This place is amazing! I do not think I had, had Peruvian food before so I was excited to try Machu Picchu for the first time. That is was a few years ago and I make it a point to go when I am in the area now. The chicken they have which they make in a special way is amazing. The bread and sauce they give you as you sit down is quite tasty as well. The star of the menu for me though is the seafood fried rice. The portion size of this is massive. My fiancé and I share one meal and still take enough home for lunch the next day. This is a deliciously seasoned rice with shrimp, mussels, octopus, and squid mixed in. AMAZING! Come here, you will not be sorry you did.
